no, but i've raced against plenty of LS1 vettes and camaros to know that they are marginally faster. there are plenty of them with bolt ons trapping over 110 here at Etown. a cammed ls1 camaro will **** on a NA z.

from a fellow z owner to another, best of luck.

I beat a few lax engined cars like gto ws6 with my geared bolt on car.

V8killer is gears and seat time away from a 12.6. ESP with this m et steets I sold him.

I think you just need practice. Last ring and switch for brake light fuse going out tomorrow. Sorry bro

Low 12s on minimal mods... I wouldn't say that. Jnaut had a bit more than "minimal."

Oh, and the Z does have cams.

Srsly.

Sorry dude, nobody in this thread can talk **** on LSXs. It's seriously one of the best motors of all time, and that's just the truth.

VVEL controls the intake valves and conventional cams control the exhaust valves.

You said the Z has cams... what I took was that it has aftermarket cams which none that I know of are out for it as of now.

That was my point that jnaut couldn't have had cams on his 12.24 run since there are none in existance for the Z and VVEL has not been cracked. Perhaps I am misunderstanding your points.

They have cams - the exhaust cam, like M4A1 said, is a typical cam. The intake cam is obviously far more sophisticated...but could potentially still be changed out...

I think there was a little bit of confusion on both parts. I thought you were implying that the stock 370Z in general does not have any cams and that VVEL controlled everything.
